How can I upgrade my router if I have optik TV?
I have a telus T3200m router and I have been having problems with port forwarding on it for over a year now (see below link for info). Regardless, if I wanted to upgrade my router, what could I do to...
In the linked thread there was a suggestion by Upcraft to do a factory reset and you didn't reply as to whether you tried that or not.
Below my router, there's a box that the fiber cable goes in, and there is an Ethernet cable coming out of it. This ethernet cable plugs in to the T3200m. There are three unused ethernet ports on the box that the fiber cable goes into. Could I just plug a router into one of these?

Community Power UserNo. Only the one port is active on the fibre box. The only way to connect a third party router to that box is if you place a gigabit switch between it and the routers. You would end up with two separate networks. It would look like this:
- I have T3200m in bridge then a personal router to allow porting for a plexserver..is your way better and has anyone port forwarded a T3200...?
- That makes sense thank you
